Same thing, can't find the location of the filter in my unit. I've even went as far as cutting around the ducting where the intake is...just to see if it's clogged with lint and other stuff. Still haven't made my way in...

Found it, I could kick myself for not reading all the labels on the air handler unit itself. If you look in the middle of the unit where the power is connected you'll see a small door that says filter access. Two thumb screws hold it in place and behind it is a washable black mesh filter, slides out.

Let's start out by your statement that the fan would not run, then you changed the contactor, not it won't stop running.
I believe, based on your info, here's what you need to do. Kill power to the unit. The 2 wires bringing power to the outdoor unit should be on the top 2 terminals. The 2 fan wires should be on the bottom 2 terminals. This is providing that the contactor is mounted Vertical. The could be an outside chance that the unit has a short in it and you are getting voltage feedback somewhere.
Take another look.
